Parameters

The name of the Keyword text file. The file will contain a list of words or phrases, separated by new lines, that will be used for matching. The entries in the keyword file are expected to be regular expressions.

Details

Opens the Keyword file you specify as a parameter, then checks the words or phrases in the current field against the keywords in the list to find a match. The entries in the keyword file are expected to be regular expressions.

To perform the action, the search first looks for the last occurrence of the first word or phrase in the keyword file. If the word is found on the page, the search stops at the last occurrence of the word. If no match is found, the next line from the keyword file is read and again the entire field is searched. This process continues until a match is found or all of the lines in the keyword file have been read. The location of the last occurrence of a found word or phrase will be remembered so the result can be used by subsequent actions. Word matching is case sensitive.

Example

FindLastRegExList_InZone("InvoiceNum")

This action searches the current page, from the first word of the current page, for the last occurrence of the first keyword in the Keyword file (InvoiceNum.key). If successful, the search stops and remembers the location of that word for subsequent actions; if not, the action continues searching for the last occurrence of the next word in InvoiceNum.key, from starting of the current page, repeating this search pattern until a match is found, or until there are no more keywords.
